Guest guest Posted October 2, 2009 Report Share Posted October 2, 2009 , That is wonderful news about your dad! I know first hand that family politics can be SOOOO frustrating and it is hard when you can't be there yourself. Hopefully, you will be able to talk to your father soon yourself. I will keep praying for a speedy recovery for him! in SC From: Fair <kalfoley@...> Subject: [ ] OT: surgery update " ra support " < > Date: Friday, October 2, 2009, 1:08 PM Hello, group, I just wanted to give the latest update on my Dad's heart surgery. I'm really aggravated b/c my 22 year old brother is my only contact on site and he's doing a crummy job of relaying information. I tried to reach him today starting at 7am and at 1030 he texted me saying that he had just woken up. Grrrr. . . They made the first incision at 5pm yesterday. The procedure went until just before midnight. He's awake this morning and the doctors are pleased. I wish I knew more. I wish I was there. I hate how this kind of thing makes you frantic with worry and then angry about all the family politics.

Guest guest Posted October 3, 2009 Report Share Posted October 3, 2009 Dear - I know how hard and frustrating these miles are on you. Praise God that your Dad seems to be doing well. How awesome that he is awake this morning and the doctors are pleased. Seems like the surgery was a success. Is he well enough for a phone call? I bet he'd love to hear from you. I know how family politics really suck. For now, just give all the praise and glory to God for having seen your father through this all. Hang in there.....

Guest guest Posted November 12, 2009 Report Share Posted November 12, 2009 , I am sure you are breathing some sighs of relief after the surgery. Not only are you there concerned for that baby but also for your daughter. It is hard to watch our kids go through such tough times. You have done enough of that with but it does not get any easier. Prayers will continue for him as he recovers and for the doctors, mom & dad and grandma. Do they know how long he should have to stay in the hospital? It is always nice to have a tentative time line at least. Veri & Jaye 15 poly OT: surgery update had his surgery yesterday! Everything went well.
